15.01.25: Level 2; the passive voice [21]: the perfect passive [2]; the perfect, pluperfect and future perfect passive: full conjugations

Images #1-3 show the perfect, pluperfect and future perfect passives fully conjugated. What is it you need to know?

[i] You need a perfect passive participle, the fourth principal part; that participle agrees in gender and number with the subject

[ii] The three tenses are formed with the three tenses of esse

[iii] The tense of ‘esse’ and the English translation don’t match

vocātus sum [present tense of esse] │ I was called

vocātus eram [imperfect tense of esse] │I had been called

vocātus erō [future tense of esse] │I shall have been called
